摘要
This was a parent-reported outcome study on the impact of helmet therapy on the quality of life of infants with deformational plagiocephaly and their caregivers. Using survey-based analysis, we compared the quality of life in infants with deformational plagiocephaly with a cohort of their healthy peers. In addition, we compared infant quality of life before and after helmet therapy to evaluate the impact of this mainstay therapy for deformational plagiocephaly. Our results demonstrated that infants with plagiocephaly and their caregivers had a significantly decreased quality of life compared with healthy controls. This reframes our understanding of deformational plagiocephaly and emphasizes the need for therapeutic intervention in these individuals. A common therapeutic option - helmet remolding therapy - was shown to have no negative impact on quality of life, underscoring this as an appropriate therapeutic option. These data will allow us to counsel our future parents more effectively regarding the impact of deformational plagiocephaly and helmet therapy.
